That was a great deal, got 10 shirts. I bought more after I received the first order. I hope they do it again.
 
For everyone who ordered pants during this deal - did yours come unfinished?

I ordered some of the corduroys and they all came unfinished. Now it looks like I'll have to take them to a tailor to get hems put in. Not making this such a good deal as I originally thought and a pain because I have to go out of my way to get this done.
 
Got a pair of pants. Yes, they're unfinished. Yes, that's a pain.
Yes, I'm glad I didn't order more pants...

The first shirt from the deal that I washed came out of the
washer/dryer way too wrinkled to wear without ironing...Hope
this isn't representative of the entire group!

Kwad guy,

They'll all come out wrinkled like that. 100% cotton shirts really need to be ironed after washing. The "wrinkle-free" shirts usually aren't 100% cotton.

Still the quality of the shirts is very nice🙂

C'mon, Kwad. How many dress shirts do you have that don't require ironing after washing? BE A MAN! Just take them to the drycleaners to have them laundered for $0.99 a piece. 😀

Hey, I have tons of 100% cotton shirts. Most of my shirts
are 100% cotton, in fact (and as my wife will complain to you,
that's a LOT of shirts). For most of them, I can obtain
wearable results by washing and then hang-drying. I tried that
with the JA Banks shirt and got unwearable results.

I'm not complaining (much) for $10 a shirt. But I WAS hoping this
would be one of the wearable after hang dry variety shirts...Looks
like it's not...Still a hot deal, just a bit of a pain!

I ordered 11 of these shirts a couple weeks ago and got the first one today(I ordered knowing it would be backordered to March 14th). The quality of these shirts is excellent! I am very pleased with this hot deal. 🙂

I bring all my dress shirts to the cleaners where they wash & iron them for a buck each. That other guy would probably be upset about 100% silk ties not being wash and wear either! 😉
 
Nope...Silk is strictly dry cleaner stuff. Same with most
wool. That's why I don't buy much silk or non-washable wool
stuff. It's not that I'm cheap. It's that I'm lazy, and dropping
off and picking stuff up from the dry cleaners is a pain in the
butt for me...

I have all cotton shirts that cost me, at 2/3 off, around $100
bucks each...Trust me, these shirts come from a hang dry looking
as good as if they came from the dry cleaners. There IS treated
cotton that is close to perma-press. But it's very expensive,
and JA Banks ain't using it...Not that I expected them to.

Was wearing one of these yesterday. They are nice. For 12 bucks. They are super nice. Anybody get the embroidery? Thanks again $DEALYDO$.
 
Not to poop on this deal, which I am sorry to have missed, but I have a bunch of dress shirts that are 100% cotton and wrinklefree that I paid around $10 each for, and that normally sell at Costco type places for about $30. (There used to be a Costco outlet near me with CHEAP prices, but those days are past).
 
Costco OUTLET??? Really? I kinda wondered what happened to all
the stuff that Costco couldn't sell. I mean, I almost never
see a "sale" at Costco to move mechandise; it just eventually
"disappears". So they have liquidation centers? Seems like
a Costco liquidation center would potentially have great deals,
since Costco is generally reasonably priced to begin with!

I just got an email from Jos-A-Banks.com, telling me that the
shirts I ordered well over a month ago, and that had been promised
to me by a specific date (backordered, but with a specific date
for fulfillment) are now "out of stock" and won't be sent. 6
shirts, no shipment.

Their prices may be good, but as a .com, these guys are losers.
Off the list they go.

Wotta crock. I mean, if they'd said a month ago out of stock, sorry,
I wouldn't have had a problem with that. But to keep me hanging
on (sorry Supremes) for over a month, promising the shirts were
going to be sent and THEN telling me "sorry, no shirts, and we're
not gonna offer a substitution, either". Well, that's the kind of
cr*p you expect for a irreputable Pricewatch retailer, not a name
retailer like Jos-A-Banks.

In the meantime, I passed on a nearly-as-good sale on men's shirts
locally, because I "knew" I was gonna get these from Jos-A-Banks.

Losers.

Kwad
 
That sucks, but I did get my last $10 shirt shipment this week, so I don't think that they screwed everyone (not that that helps you at all).
 
These things happen.

Many, many people DID get their shirts. I don't think they are a bad .com at all. Just because you didn't get your shirts doesn't mean they aren't reputable.

I got 3 short sleeve shirts, nice material and color - but unwearable for me, no iron in the house. essentially a waste of money - although I quess I can dryclean once and then give as a present to someone who regulariry irons.🙁
